Ep. 124 - The Present Father: Navigating Sobriety Within Fatherhood.


Listen Later

Welcome back to this week's episode of Trudge Report. Thank you for supporting the show. This is our annual Father's Day episode. We want to start off by wishing all of the fathers, stepfather's, soon to be fathers, and father figures, a wonderful day and blessings to come. We go briefly around the horn and discuss Father's Day family celebrations, road trip planning, rental car tips, graduations, and new jobs. Plus a quick but educational difference on two Italian desserts.

The recovery segment is all about navigating fatherhood in sobriety. Dan discusses what life was like having a child before he got sober, juxtaposing that with having another child a few years after he got sober. The three of us talk about the joys of being dads and what we love the most. We also talk about how difficult it can be to be a first time father, especially in early sobriety. How a spiritual foundation and good support network is invaluable. We end the segment and the show with a couple of quick hitter questions designed to be fun and lighthearted about being a father and advice we would give to new fathers.

"Heaven is that perfect state of consciousness in which one is in full realization of the Divine Presence." -Emmet Fox-
